What is keeping leaders in the utilities sector up at night? This is the question at the heart of the UK Utilities Risk Report, brought to you by Utility Week, in association with Marsh. Find out what made the top 10 for 2026 and hear the views of South East Water, UK Power Networks and Utilita.
April will see the publication of the fifth iteration of the report, which tracks the top risks for energy networks, retailers and water companies and is based on a survey of sector leaders.
This webinar will exclusively reveal the top 10 risks across utilities, followed by a panel discussion with senior figures from energy networks, retail and water, who will give their views on the results and what they see as the greatest challenges facing their sector.
